Carnaval Matine is the first Brazilian Carnaval for children in Miami. This cultural festival is an explosion of music, color and entertainment with live music, dancers, costume contest, arts & crafts, food & drinks and lots and lots of confetti.

Through Carnival Matine children will bring their Brazilian roots to life. Families will sing and dance to the sounds of a full live band playing all the traditional carnaval beats that families who grew up in Brazil are familiar with. A DJ will also spin all the famous Brazilian songs that children and adults love to dance to. There will be an arts & crafts section where children can create their own masks and instruments. The entire room will be decorated with folkloric elements and lots of confetti.

Parents that want to relax can hang outside where it will be served authentic Brazilian food and drinks. Carnival Matine is a remarkable and unique event for all families.
